Why Teens Enjoy Orthodontics

Orthodontic treatments are designed to help guide and improve the shape of your teen’s teeth and mouth. Along with an improved smile, bringing teeth into alignment can improve their bite function and protect their overall oral health and smile.

For active teens that enjoy smiling and taking selfies, we provide a number of low-profile alignment options so they can live their life without the treatment interfering.

Does My Teen Need Orthodontics?

Does My Teen Need Orthodontics - Brisbane Queensland, Fortitude Valley & Albany Creek - Allstar Orthodontics
The Australian Society of Orthodontists recommends that children begin early treatment for orthodontics around the age of 7, because the bones are still developing. This makes it easier to implement treatment, which can save time and money in the future. But even if your child didn’t get early treatment, it’s never too late to get orthodontics for teens. The following are signs that your teen might need orthodontic treatment:
\
Crowded teeth
\
Improper bite
\
Painful bite or discomfort when chewing
\
Overbite, underbite or crossbite
\
Gapped or missing teeth
\
Crooked teeth
\
Teeth that grow incorrectly, such as sideways or too high in the gum
When you bring your teen to us here at Allstar Orthodontics, our Orthodontist will do a thorough dental exam and assessment to diagnose all dental issues. We can professionally clean your child’s teeth to give them a fresh start and then determine the best orthodontic solutions they might need. And don’t worry, most teens have choices when it comes to teeth and bite alignment, and we will discuss all options with you and your teen. We will partner with you to help improve the oral health of you and your family.
